Motor Ace To Reform For 20th Anniversary Shows

Melbourne’s Motor Ace will reform for shows to mark their 20th anniversary.

Singer Pat Robertson said in a statement, “It’s been 20 years since we were playing our first shows around Melbourne – at the Punters Club, Evelyn and Espy – and 13 years since the last Motor Ace show. It feels pretty bizarre to be honest, but really looking forward to playing shows with the guys and most importantly seeing if we can still party!” Damo adds, “It feels absolutely surreal, the reason being that when I was 22, and young and earnest, I had no idea that 20 years later I was going to play these songs again! I am most excited about enjoying those songs again in a live space, excited to play again with a sense of nostalgia and giving my all with the guys. We really wanna have some fun with it.”

As part of the reunion also expect a reissue of the original albums with bonus tracks. “It’s really cool to listen to the initial demos and to see where they ended up on the record after it had been produced,” says Damo. “I’ve found loads of footage from ages ago from touring, as well. We are going to release some unreleased demos that we did before the records were recorded, including Shoot This demos some of which sounds better than the official recording.”

Ball Park Music’s new video ‘Day & Age’ was filmed on what they say was Brisbane’s coldest May day in a century. It got down to 11 degrees on 23 May. Yes, Brisbane people are funny … they think that’s cold.
